HIPPOTHERAPY HAS STARTED BACK UP!

Last night Emmalin got to get back on Freckles for the first time since November. Emmalin did SO well! As expected, there was a little regression, but not as much as I thought that there would be. So will now get to see Freckles for 7 more weeks (this session anyway) and then there will be 2 more 8 week sessions following this in the summer and fall. We are hoping to be able to participate in those also.

The place that we do hippotherapy at is called Dynamic Strides. It is an amazing place that is ran as a ministry (and strictly on donations). They ask that you pay $45 a week if you can, but if you can't they say to come anyway. Their "motto", for lack of a better word, is that as long as they can keep the horses fed and the lights on they are going to keep going!

If anyone out there has an extra hour or two and are wanting to get out there and participate something that is rewarding and will leave you smiling each week, think about volunteering at this Dynamic Strides. It's so wonderful!!! They will take any volunteer for as long as they are willing to be there (even if it's just an hour).

If you are interested in learning more about Dynamic Strides, making a donation, or volunteering, check out their website at: www.dynamicstrides.org

You can also follow them on Facebook and Twitter!

Pictures of Emmalin on Freckles will be coming soon!!!
